Lung cancer better

I have been treated for lung cancer for six years.

Originally in left lung. Then spread to lymph nodes in neck.

Good news now gone but just been diagnosed with prostate cancer.

About to start hormone treatment then in a couple of months will start radiotherapy.

Here we go again!

Kevin.

I recommend Mac apples or Empire if you dont like the tartness. I had my thoracic surgery in April of 2018 and it was a full chest opening and removal of the esophagus, relocating my stomach on top of my lungs. Recovery has been hard, especially what to eat and what to avoid. I have started following @Ankr.Us on Instagram… they post good content on nutrition for cancer patients.

it's certainly a roller coaster for you - well done on the lung cancer treatment - sometimes having had previous treatment can make us more anxious when we face it again but hopefully your resilience and fortitude you know you have from last time, can be drawn on again for this next lot.... good luck with the treatment and recovery...
